'What I ordered vs. What I got': Top lame Christmas gifts that should put folks on the Naughty List

'What I ordered vs. What I got': Top lame Christmas gifts that should put folks on the Naughty List

As children, we're all taught that “we get what we get and we don't get upset.” Perhaps this is true in the vast majority of circumstances, but if you were to receive one of these Christmas gifts, you would have to possess a whole lot of self-control to be able to stop yourself from letting your rage bubble to the surface. Of course, not everyone is easy to shop for during the Holidays. I have been known to spend several weeks in December agonizing over what to gift my parents. For some family…

For whatever reason, this customer won't take no for an answer. They'll keep pushing th…

Employee maliciously complies after being told to take shorter breaks: 'I decided to take short breaks every five minutes'

There are the kinds of places where the boss is watching you like a hawk, counting the minutes that you're spending at your desk. Meanwhile, they're going out for a smoke break with their favorite staff, what seems like every five minutes. This is exactly why most places have laws around what breaks an employee is entitled to because even with the laws, too many business owners and managers have their own ideas about when and even how breaks should be taken, whether or not those ideas are align…

'Why did the ratty slob behind me get his first?': Entitled Karen gets escorted out of coffee shop by the cops after losing it over slow service

'Why did the ratty slob behind me get his first?': Entitled Karen gets escorted out of coffee shop by the cops after losing it over slow service

Most folks cannot fathom having the audacity to make a scene at a coffee shop, and yet, there are clearly enough people in this life who continue to make scenes any chance they can. Does this stem from a bitterness toward the world? Does it stem from a warped sense of entitlement? Are these folks capable of stepping out of their own experiences to realize the world does not revolve around them? The short answer to that last one is… unlikely. Here, we have an entitled Karen who put in an overly…

'We got a $5 Starbucks gift card': 20+ employees share the worst Holiday bonuses they've received

It's the time of year to get disappointed by your employers when they fail to give you the Christmas bonus you most likely rightfully deserve. There is nothing like the month of December to feel simultaneously grateful and jaded. On the one hand, you're planning to spend time with loved ones, which in and of itself requires figuring out logistics, purchasing gifts, and negotiating difficult personalities.

'About to watch this guy void his warranty': 20+ Clunky cyber trucks that people can't stop joking about

Cyber trucks haven't even been on the market for that long, but when you see one out in public, it's an unmistakable sight. These Tesla cars are big, boxy gray cars that just look strange compared to every other truck on the market. They look like video game vehicles that haven't been rendered properly. Some people compare them to dumpsters, to which they do have an uncanny resemblance. They just don't look like they should be real cars… they look like something you'd see in an 80s movie predic…

'I know karma will get her': Karen makes neighbor's baby cry, then gets caught stealing on camera

'I know karma will get her': Karen makes neighbor's baby cry, then gets caught stealing on camera

Catching a thieving neighbor is not as easy as it looks. First of all, without evidence, it's kind of an audacious assumption to be made. It's certainly not the kind of thing you can accuse someone of face-to-face unless you have concrete proof. In this instance, the only concrete evidence this Redditor had was that her neighbor was a miserable human being. That's certainly enough to suspect, but it's not enough to prove. For a little backstory, the Redditor started to create distance between h…

Dude teaches girlfriend's 12-year-old trash-talking younger brother a lesson in video games: 'His friends were now laughing at him and he was on the verge of tears'

It's generally accepted that you should let kids win at things there's nothing more embarrassing than watching a grown adult demolish kids in sports or games. (The iconic “Billy Madison” scene of Adam Sandler playing dodgeball with children comes to mind.) Of course, there are exceptions to this rule—like if you're an uncle—and there's more of a grey area around how long this should go on. When they're really young, it's more about maintaining their interest in the game you're playing together.…
